Thanks for the explanations, that and

helped.

Well, I tried likelycomplete.

It compartmentalises the words by file type, which makes sense
for code but probably does more harm than good for what I do
(prose).

I didn't see a way to compartmentalise on another criterion. So
it's not clear how to maintain distinct dictionaries if you
write in more than one language.

likelycomplete seems to think that "" is not a real file type,
which is unfortunate as it's what I'm in half the time.

Maybe because of that, sometimes, I can't seem to get it to
work : likelycomplete#select_imap inserts itself and
:Likelycomplete gives me a bunch of error messages about empty
keys. Other times, everything just works. Yet other times,
nothing works until you call :Likelycomplete. I suspect this
inconsistency has got to do with the saving state to file. Which
I may remove anyway because I'd rather maintain word lists
centrally.

The parameters are all global but my language and abbreviations
settings are per window which makes interfacing the two
difficult.

Fuzzy matching has a perceptible delay, even with a small
dictionary (13_000 words, 100 kB)

Now I need to figure out how to adapt likelycomplete to my needs
or just rip the parts I want...

Thanks for your help.
